Online communities...

I posted on Soule Mama's "this moment" a link to my blog, after Kirstin piqued my interest in experimenting with getting hits.  And I got 56 hits that day, and I was 98th in the comments or something like that.  Crazy the power a mamablogger can have.  Wierd.  And someone from Portland looked at it.  And, perhaps I'm being stuck up, but have you viewed SouleMama today?

Whether or not I have inspired her (I can safely say that she inspires me), I was talking to a close Michigander girlfriend last night and she was saying how much she loved my photos and blog... that feels nice.  I guess I know I have a lot of lurkers on my blog.

So, the gist of what I'm going to say is, I lurk on y'alls blogs a lot and am very inspired by y'alls capabilities.  And I'm thankful to have the computer for connecting with people, whatever anyone may say about technology and disconnection...

  1. Right back at ya Carin.

    I know what people say about the disconnect computers can bring...however, I have to admit there are people that I haven't felt connected to in a long time, old friends, that thanks to the computer, I feel like I know them again. Sure, it's no substitute for a good conversation over a glass of wine, but it's something. And it's valuable.

    Also, I can honestly say, that as long as you guys keep up your blogs, I know that no matter where life takes us, I will always feel connected, simply by being able take a look. It can really be a wonderful thing.
